ABOUT US
Youth Intelligence Agency teaches children in a playful way how technology, computers and robotics work and that there is more to a computer than just games and videos. In our courses, children gain a basic understanding of technology and realise what is possible with technology and a little imagination.
With the digital scouts the children meet regularly and continuously engage with the topic of technology and digitalisation.
In the holiday camp the children can work in depth on a theme for a week.

Courses and workshops for children
An afternoon full of exciting projects!
With the digital scouts on a voyage of discovery into the world of technology
The YIA association is convinced that children need to engage with the topics of technology and digitalisation in the long term. It was with this motivation that the digital scouts were launched. The children meet for two hours on Saturdays at the Mission Center in Baden or Schlieren and can choose a topic that is offered. The children work on various projects in parallel and can see what other children are doing and thus discover new interests. The leaders accompany the children and help them discover their interests and strengths.
We support the next generation of programmers, app developers and innovators with conviction and passion. In our courses, we give children the opportunity to learn how to work with codes, algorithms and digital tools at an early age and in a playful way.
Our holiday courses
Due to the current BAG protection measures, all our holiday courses in the sports holidays are cancelled.
Learning together
At the ElKi course, adults and children go on a journey of discovery together
During four half-days, you and your daughter, son or godchild will get a playful taste of the computer. You will be accompanied by the mouse and the robot Dash. Together you will learn to give robots instructions, make your own computers out of paper and cardboard and programme a simple dance figure.
If you need support with a project or want to learn a new programming language and want someone to accompany you personally, we also offer private lessons. The content is then adapted to your needs. This can be physical or virtual.
Testimonials
What our customers say
“My boys 8 and 7 were in the autumn holiday course “Programming robots” and I was speechless how playfully complex processes were explained to the children. The children were so enthusiastic and motivated that even getting up early in the dark was not an issue. I can only recommend these courses and we will certainly book a course again. Definitely 5 stars!”
“My favourite thing was making up and programming stories in ScratchJr. On the second day I installed it at home so that I could continue because I still have a lot of ideas.”
Isabel, 10 years
Course: “Discover the digital world”
“I liked the robot programming best, and I also found the car racing programming cool. I also liked the trick with the error in the code. It was also cool to do it all in a group.”

“I liked the car racing and the robot programming the most.”
Luigi, 12 years
